Two-step login can permanently lock you out of your account. It is very important that you write down and keep your two-step login recovery code in a safe place in the event that you lose access to your authenticator app.

  1. Log in to the web safe at https://secretsafe.rayt.io
  2. Click Settings in the top navigation bar, then click Two-step Login from the side menu.
  3. Select the Manage button for the Authenticator option and then type in your master password to continue.
  4. Follow the steps that appear
    • Download an authenticator app (usually on your mobile device). We recommend Authy.
    • Scan the QR code with the app.
    • Enter the verification code from the app.
  5. Click the Enable button. A green alert will appear at the top stating that two-step login has been enabled.
  6. Click the Close button and confirm that the Authenticator option now shows as Enabled.

Test​

  1. IMPORTANT: Ensure that you have copied down your two-step login recovery code in case something goes wrong.
  2. Log out of the SecretSafe website.
  3. Log back into the SecretSafe website. You should now be prompted with an authenticator two-step login option.
  4. Authenticator protection works with all SecretSafe applications (web, mobile, desktop, browser). Log out of and back in to any other SecretSafe applications that you are using to confirm that two-step login via authenticator app is properly working. You will eventually be logged out automatically.
